Early Results of First Hunt |

Pigs and ladders seem to be fairly common together. The robot seems to be the sticking point. Keep trying and I'll come up with another hunt in a couple of weeks.

It's an oldie but a goodie My criteria:
* needs to be heavy (given)
* needs to be really heavy
* needs to be so heavy it can't be picked up
* must impart a heaviness in the heart of the viewer

big robot ladder |

I found the pig robot ladder pic. The pig is difinitely there, the ladder is just visible. The robot is a bit of a stretch but there is a mechanical ladder bucket in the frame that might be considered a robot. The instructions did not specify if the robot had to be autonomous.

First Scavenger Hunt: Web Pics |

This will be an open ended scavenger hunt. That is there are no preset answers to the questions. Later I will add some hunts with specific answers you must find but for now the results will be more subjective. All answers will be in the form of an URL. 1. Find the heaviest picture on the internet
2. Find a picture of the bluest object physically possible
3. Find an image containing two pigs, a robot and a ladder.
